Day 28- My biggest pet peeve

I have a lot of little things that get to me. Lying, gossiping, alcoholics, self centered people, etc...

One thing that bugs me more than anything, and I would get rid of it if I could... SMOKING. Smoking cigerettes is nasty. It smells, it rots your teeth out, it spreads second hand smoke to innocent bystanders, turns your teeth/house yellow and most imporantly-it kills.

My mother has smoked since she was 13 or something like that. She is 49 years old now, and still smokes like a chimney. She is "disabled" and is always sick. I blame it on, and know it is for certain, from the cigerettes. She coughs like crazy and is probably sick 10 out of 12 months. I am surprised she still has lung function at all. Not to mention all of the cancer and death from cigerettes. I understand that they really rake in the money, but I am sick of people wanting to sell harmful and hurtful things for a buck. (For example, trying to legalize marijuana so they can tax it and get the money from it).

I will never smoke because I am stressed, bored or trying to be cool. I actually think smoking makes people less cool and defiently less attractive.

God Bless
